Is that a private sale or an ex-demo ? I'm guessing demo. I traded in my Mk1 for a Mk2 demo with only 100mls and 18K asking price...4½K off list I'm coming up on 2000mls now and loved every single one of them. Remember to fill up with V-Power. Few pence more per litre but it's a high compression engine.

Thanks everyone for all the welcomes. Cant wait for the snow to clear. The roads round where I live in Bolton are still pretty bad.
Neil2112.. It was brand new mate. Had about 3 miles on when i got it. Ive actually had it just over a week and even with the weather I've managed to do the 300 miles. I had put tesco 99 in it at beginning of week. Not had any problems with that but the I'll probably be using V power from now on as the shell garage is on my way to work.

Found Tesco 99 (Momentum) to be just as good, but if V Power is more convenient then I would go for that.

Sorry,thought you meant 300mls when you picked it up.
Yeah,Tesco Momentum or V-Power. I've only filled with Momentum once as Tesco forecourts are even rarer than Shell stations round here.Seemed fine to me.
If you join the V-Power club you get 2 points for every litre and can then redeem for air miles or fuel vouchers.It's only something like £3 voucher for every £300 spent at the pump but it's better than the proverbial kick in the gonads.
Don't bother with BP Ultimate (103 RON) unless you've got more money than sense.
